He was hand-picked by George Clinton as the guitarist for Clinton's albums. He's skipped cities in a private jet with Rod Stewart, playing sold out stadiums.
He signed the largest deal Island Records has ever forked over a new artist. His second solo record album ousted the Rolling Stones and Aerosmith for "Best Album"
in Japan. Most books name him as one of the Top 50 Guitarists of All Time. Mick Jagger tapped him to be his guitarist....
Yadayadaya....
The important fact? Stevie has a new album!
The long story:
